In 2020, as the Covid-19 pandemic forced the shutdown of most on-field lacrosse activities, USA Lacrosse began hearing about outstanding efforts being made by boys and girls high school lacrosse players to support their community during challenging times.
In order to more broadly highlight those efforts, and to potentially inspire others to similar feats, USA Lacrosse launched the Impact Athletes initiative. We asked for your stories and shared them with the larger lacrosse community.
Today, we are all grateful that lacrosse has returned to the field, but at USA Lacrosse, we also know that high school athletes continue to do amazing things off the field.
Therefore, we are relaunching Impact Athletes and invite you to submit your inspiring stories via our easy-to-use online submission form.
Tell us how you or someone you know is making a positive difference. Perhaps it’s doing something unique to keep your team connected off-the-field, or volunteering time and energy to positively impact the lives of others in your community.
We want to hear your stories! Coaches and parents can also submit stories on behalf of a high school athlete.
Each month, we’ll recognize the worthiest nominees and celebrate the high school athletes that have seized the opportunity to become Impact Athletes!
